BAVU BLAKES

BAVU BLAKES - Overnight lyrics

(feat. Jade)

[Jade]

Issues get choosed, therefore I choose to digest issues

Like all these wack mc's that do all that wackin'

Get all whacked up in the face if they keep up all this actin'

I'ma bend you over tha old bones

With these scriptures that I've written in stone

Through my spiritual vocal tones stayin' in motion

Toward motivation still prayin'

That I can live in a better place before you take it

The millenium of major transactions

Havin' me sendin' 'em on to hell and all the way back again

I ain't got a whole lot to say

But what i'm about to say got a whole lot of meanin'

These demons they got me schemin', screamin'

And out of darkness comes the son gleamin'

Beamin' just to put a smile on my face with one take

I'ma let it manifest itself while I'm dreamin' 'stead of while I'm awake

[chorus x2]

I wish I could find overnight success

But for now I just wanna put my skills to the test

Before my head take rest in a graveyard chest

I hope to be last but not least, next to the best

[Bavu]

At times my legs seem weak, can't feel my feet beneath me

Though they keep movin' up and down the street

Need some bread for real, so I head uphill

Instead of makin' moves, it's like I'm on a treadmill

Or standing still

Whatever the deal, I play my cards and odds

Seein' a bright horizon ain't that hard

But it's dark, though, and hot, too

Humid like a land flu

I got a beat I wrote to

(they might not understand you)

That ain't too much to handle

Though I'm a man wit' only two hands

Like a session wish I could stretch my time

So much to do, damn, relax

'causeIi'm not really in control, let it roll

Lose the Ice Cube eyebrows for now

Got a lotta land to plow, and a bunch of seeds to sow

Eat by the bushel at harvest time, but still I gotta grow

[chorus x2]

[Jade]

Realizing that I got more emotions than paper

Has me devoted to givin' it all just a little bit more flava

These silly investigators, better known as playa hataz

For the limited mind, all I'm simply sayin' is that I'm tryin' to survive

'Cause if it was left up to me we would all be flyin'

Step out your shoes and a little bit further in to mine

Fell the pressure deeper in your spine

More difficult than them normal unexpected times

Could easily go from underground to mainstream

But with my flow I'd rather keep 'em guessing on potential I'm possessing

[Bavu]

Counting my blessings, 'cause every day that I grind

Is teaching me a lesson, all good things take time

So I'm steady progressing, hustling as I create

Rushing though I still gotta wait for that release date

Yearning for that sweet taste in my mouth when I finally come out

Whole hood's lined up, fine, now I'm having a good time

[chorus x2]
